NHTSA Complaint #11330237 — 2014 FORD FUSION

ACCELERATING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN VEHICLE SUDDENLY BECAME UNRESPONSIVE AND SLUGGISH. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING. PULLED OFF HIGHWAY. HAD IT TOWED TO A FORD DEALER. THEY CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE ON THE 1.6L AND 2.0L ECOBOOST ENGINES WHERE COOLANT LEAKS INTO THE NUMBER 4 CYLINDER CAUSING LOW COMPRESSION AND POTENTIAL OVERHEATING RENDERING VEHICLE UNDRIVABLE. FORD QUOTED ME $6,500 FOR A NEW ENGINE, AS THEY STATED, IS THE ONLY FIX. CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT BE ON THE HOOK BECAUSE OF A CLEAR AND OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW AS STATED BY FORD INCLUDED IN THE 1.6L ECOBOOST RECALL, BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL TO INCLUDE THE 2.0L ECOBOOST ENGINES. (SEE ATTACHED LINK REGARDING POSSIBLE CLASS ACTION SUIT AS PREPARED BY A NASHVILLE LAW FIRM) COUNTLESS OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ON HERE AND OTHER FORUMS. A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ISSUED IMMEDIATELY TO INCLUDE THE 2014 FUSION 2.0L ECOBOOST ENGINES!!! PLEASE REFER TO BELOW LINK... HTTPS://WWW.NEWSOM.LAW/FORD-ENGINE-OVERHEATING-LAWSUIT.HTML. *TR
